I've noticed the same. At first, I thought it was Baader-Meinhof, since I recently decided to set up a FreeBSD server after over a decade since I last used it, but it's definitely hitting the news more (15.0-RELEASE comes soon, and a Swift build was just announced), which I guess naturally leads to more discussion.

Would love to see it surge in popularity. Underrated OS.

I do too, but don't. I was using Linux when thee kernel was only on version 2. I jumped properly to FreeBSD after the Ubuntu CD fiasco.

Not sure where I'd jump to next as I enjoy my OS's non-mainstream but life is life. Maybe Open Indiana or TempleOS.
